I noticed you did not have a “purpose” section above, you did have a “necessity” section; but I do not believe that answers my question as to the purpose of doing this and going through this process.
Is the purpose to help create a local “false” etherium miner” to help us mine the actual etherium coins? What is the purpose in that context? Hope my question was clear and not too vague. Thanks for your answer.

Love it. So true. In fact so true squared. I’ve been there.

I’m looking forwards to following your tutorial, but I saw that and had to comment.

No better way to really understand what’s going on and have total control. I didn’t like Azure or other 3rd party IDEs — you don’t know what’s going on under the hood and they’re expensive. Also when something goes wrong or the code base is changed, you’re left in the dark unless you’ve been studying the geth/pyethapp/code base.

Wed, 26 Jul 2017 16:15:34 +0000http://omarmetwally.wordpress.com/?p=1235#comment-159Thank you for your feedback, Wouter. I’ve updated the tutorial by adding Step 3, which describes the processes of connecting to the bootnode and creating the geth.ipc file. It’s important to not confuse the geth.ipc file in your data directory with the default one in the home directory. That’s why it’s important to always specify the datadir flag. Cheers

Wed, 26 Jul 2017 10:39:25 +0000http://omarmetwally.wordpress.com/?p=1235#comment-158That was the solution, might want to include that in your post. Some more points:
wouldn’t it be better to mention testrpc/truffle in this post? Following this post now requires a lot of copy paste work of addresses and so forth.

Also, I first got an error because the mining wasn’t going fast enough, even with the current settings…I’m still too noob to understand how to boost it but might be a good adjustment too.

Anyway, thanks a lot, I’ve spent 4 consecutive nights following tutorials that didn’t work, as well as crashes on Azure deployments. This was the first tutorial that actually worked.

Any pointers on IDE for linux : Atom, Remix?

When I run step2, no ipc file is created. It says:

If I just run geth it creates the .ethereum folder with an .ipc file in my home dir which I guess is not right either.
